League Play-Off

Stade Loret
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Jason Floc'h took the kick off in the first half of the match. Alix Bessou charged in rather forcefully in the 6th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Alix Bessou the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of Vernhole booed when Loret was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 6 match minutes in a wonderful position. Alix Bessou didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 8thth minute of the game Barthélémy Terras who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Loret's Farid Dupré was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Gaspard Collange showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Clem Hébrard in the 12th minute of the match. Jordy Alfonsi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 17th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gaspard Collange having to interfere. After 20 minutes, Camille Baudon mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Vernhole and the Loret players grew even worse after the yellow card. 20 minutes into the game, one of Vernhole:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. A hard shot by Mathias Wendling from long distance, 26 minutes into the match, got Gaspard Collange's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. Loret's Jordy Alfonsi got a good chance for a goal in the 31st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Farid Dupré made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Jason Floc'h in the 36th minute of play. Farid Dupré came out of the goal in the 46th minute to try and stop a shot by Vernhole's Jason Floc'h. But to his dismay, Jason Floc'h quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. The Loret players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Vernhole were winning 1-2.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Jordy Alfonsi was the one to do the kick off. Jordy Alfonsi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Vernhole's Gaspard Collange played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jordy Alfonsi in the 57th minute of play. Farid Dupré showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Barthélémy Terras, who was totally free with the ball in the 62nd minute. Barthélémy Terras recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 66th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 66th match minute, Loret was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Mathys Challet to maneuver through the defense. Vernhole's Jason Floc'h was standing unmarked in front of the goal when he, in the 72nd play minute, got the ball and easily drilled it into the goal. Barthélémy Terras fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 77th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Farid Dupré having to interfere. In the 78th minute, Mathys Challet hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a defensive mix-up in Vernhole's zone, Jordy Alfonsi stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gaspard Collange came out of the goal and Jordy Alfonsi tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 85 minutes into the match, Loret's goal looked a bit too open when Jason Floc'h came free, but Farid Dupré reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Jason Floc'h sent away a hard shot on goal in the 87th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Farid Dupré took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jason Floc'h, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The audience was convinced that Jason Floc'h's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Farid Dupré was relentless in the 95th minute of the game. The nice shot from Barthélémy Terras in the 97thth minute just in front of the goal should have ended in point on the board, but Farid Dupré had a great feel for the game and superbly saved the ball from getting in by the left post.
